Abstract

Abstract The use of module theory in the study of rings is long established, but only in relatively recent years has serious use been made in semigroup theory of the non-additive analogue of a module. Perhaps surprisingly for such a simple structure, what we shall call S-systems (where S is a monoid) have proved a useful tool in the study of monoids and semigroups. The particular use that we shall highlight in this chapter is the application to amalgamation theory and related topics. The technique is available only for monoids, but, as we shall see, it is usually possible to extend the results to semigroups in a fairly straightforward way.
